2. ck out your community colleges
I teach online in virginia at cc
You don't want to have to pay out of state tuition.
for master degrees there is www.capella.edu or phoenix univ or a number of others.
some four year colleges are moving in that direction.
depends on your state.
do a search

7. Don't do U. of Phoenix!


They're really expensive. Most community colleges and 4 year colleges offer distance courses over the Internet.

6. They're everywhere, they're everywhere...
There are bunches of colleges that do this...some do it well and some just do it :( I don't want to name names (I might have to work at some of them someday) but big isn't always better, and local may be easier to deal with if a problem arises.

My advice is be sure that any program you hook up with is already accredited. The institution will tell you, if so, but you need to know what agencies provided the accreditation as some places are crooked enough to lie about accreditation.
